Alitiring /ˈælɪˌtaɪrɪŋ/ (German: Alitieren, A1- aluminum)- a type of aluminization; impregnation of the surface of metal objects (mainly steel, rarely cast iron and heat-resistant alloys based on nickel or cobalt) by diffusion (q. Diffusion). ” is used to reduce the remaining (for example, when using threaded compounds in a vacuum), to increase resistance to spreading, to protect against corrosion in sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen environments.
Ex. The method of alitiring is also employed to mitigate the presence of residual gases, particularly beneficial when utilizing threaded compounds in vacuum-sealed environments.
